I guess my assumption is that he won't be getting out of jail.

Well, my hope is that, you know, he will remain in custody.

uh until the end of his days but i can't say for sure what what will happen um but that's you know i like that's what i believe will happen i don't i don't think anything else um i can't i can't see him getting out i just and i really hope he doesn't uh are you giving evidence in the trial

Yeah, so I went to Paris in 2024 and met with the magistrate to give my testimony and additional evidence.

And yeah, so if and when it goes to trial, which I believe it will, then yes, I will be there to...

to support the case in whatever way i can we have we have an excellent lawyer and if anybody also if anybody listening has been involved with the school and wants to join in with legal proceedings please reach out because you know if if if this has happened to you or something similar has happened to you your voice matters and um it's it's not too late to to kind of get involved

Yes, I was living overseas and I was on a bit of a spiritual journey and I would really kind of think about it being a situation of vulnerability because I'd just moved overseas.

I was 25.

I was exploring my spirituality, my identity, what I believe in.

I was in a new city going through a breakup.

And I also really enjoyed yoga.

And I was just looking for a really good yoga practice to start with.

I wasn't looking for a spiritual yoga school.

And then I got linked in with my brother's friends and they'd found this amazing spiritual yoga school that was going to change my life.

And it just snowballed from there.

So I was living in the UK and the online branch that I first joined is called Atman Yoga Federation.

Then I eventually joined the London branch, which is Tara Yoga Center.

And they go by a whole list of different names, depending on where you are in the world.

I became aware of him fairly early.

I was doing the online classes and I was talking to this friend that had kind of drawn me into the school.
